Post Subject: The electricity... what to do next?Posted by Romy the Cat on: 12/5/2007

Well, my ride over the APS PurePower wave did not finish yet. As this point I am convinced that my PurePower unit #5 is also defective. I have a conversation with PurePower people and they will look into it. I still fill that my unit #1 and my current the unit #5 are basically the regenerators that operates and sound differently. Let see what the APS investigation would show.

Also, I passed to the APS people an idea how to eliminate the biggest from my point of view shortcoming of this regenerator. If they go for it, and AI hope they should then it might be a very interesting APS revision and it would give to the APS a momentum to introduce a “new” product. I doubt they might go for it driven by sonic consideration but they might like it as marketing tools to make the Morons who use currently PurePower regenerators to buy “new” PurePower units. If the release of the new PurePower, let call it “PurePower Premier” :-) would be bitter with good white paper and good literature then it might be something that make APS people to consider it as a next move. I do invest into this opportunity keeping my useable and from my point of view faulty operating PurePower regenerator in my storage.

Meanwhile I am still secured, and I have no tools to deal with my crappy downtown Boston electricity.  What would be next to try. The Rotary Frequency Converters? Some of them claim 65dB Nose that is not a lot….  Ron Kemp from Kemp Elektroniks prposed to get his 120V unit for 1295 Euro. It is a lot of money for 75W. I wonder if the price including an opportunity to try how it sound as I have no reference point about the sonic objectives of Mr. Kemp’s company.

I still, very much like an idea of good Class-D amplifier. If I found one powerful 1000W into 8R class D amps I might try to drive it from my generator and will see how it will sound.
